Dungy Returns To Colts

Tony Dungy returned to the Indianapolis Colts this morning with little fanfare but a huge impact.

Safety Gerome Sapp was lying on a table in the training room, icing his sore back at about 7:30 a.m. Sapp was drifting in and out of sleep.

“I heard his voice and I woke up: ‘Coach Dungy’s back,’” said Sapp, his smile spilling off both sides of his face. “By this time, he’s right by me, and he leans down and gives me a hug, and like, ‘It’s good seeing you guys.’”

“Everybody just perked up, and when he left, it was just a different mood.”

Dungy was not immediately available for comment, but he is expected to address the media after practice this afternoon. The Colts’ head coach has been absent since last Thursday, when his eldest son, James, was found dead in his apartment in Lutz, Fla.

The Colts have been a team in mourning, but spirits soared all around Union Federal Football Center.
